Traveler reviews
Atlanta Black History Tour
This was the best tour EVER! Our guide Jeff was very informative and professional. I knew Atlanta had history. But this tour brought out the best of its history. I would definitely take this tour again and again. That is how much I enjoyed the tour. I would advise anyone to take this tour. It was worth every penny!
Fascinating glimpse into Atlanta's black history
This was an interesting and enjoyable dip into Atlanta's black history - so many good characters and important moments have happened here and continue to do so. Highly recommemd. Our tour guide Geoff kept us thoroughly entertained with good stories and witty observations - I felt like I learnt a lot and had fun in the process.
Highly recommend
Lots of interesting history, nice staff, good vibes, air conditioned bus, highly recommend!
It's all in the details
Atlanta is a great cover page. This tour provides the details. Anyone who celebrates their Black American heritage will love the details. Anyone who needs to know why or what Black Americans celebrate, will love or should love the tour.
